"JQuery Mobile helped make it so AccountBlaster can work on Phones and Tablets!!"
What do you like best about jQuery Mobile?

I am great general full stack programmer, but I know very little, next to nothing about building phone apps. I built a web app, AccountBlaster, added in JQuery Mobile, and was amazed to see that all of a sudden, it worked perfectly on phones and tablets (in chrome)!! Obviously mobile functionality is so essential right now! And I didn't have the capability to make it work any other way. Thankfully, JQuery Mobile is free, readily available, generally well known, and worked perfectly and easily to fill the need! You just include it at the top of the page, just like JQuery, that's it. And it just works. That was my experience anyway. See it in action, at AccountBlaster!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about jQuery Mobile?

There is nothing to dislike about it! One tiny tag at the top of your html file and you have mobile functionality built right in to your web app, simple as that! See it in action, at AccountBlaster!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I think that today we have tools more efficient and more fresh for that."
What do you like best about jQuery Mobile?

Some compounds are very useful back in the days. But this today we have some frameworks and libs more capable and with more components. Five years ago i like to use it just at that time was the best framework to convert to mobile some apps. In that project we already use jQuery, and jQueryUI, so jQueryMobile was a complement for our needs. We use a lot of components like for example, forms, listviews, navbars, buttons, popups, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about jQuery Mobile?

Lack of components, support, no community, bugs, low performance, stops in time... I guest the project jQuery Mobile project was abandoned, with some critical bugs and a old look in comparation with some news frameworks and libs. When i'm used jQuery Mobile i need to make big workarrounds to make functional some components to my needs, so i have some struggles. Today we have some frameworks and libs with more versatility, such bootstrap and materializecss, for example. One of the most dislike form me, was the grid system, we have some strugles and we not use any more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"jQuery Mobile was a great option in the past"
What do you like best about jQuery Mobile?

One of the best jQuery Mobile features is ThemeRoller. It allows you to change your app look simply by dragging and dropping colors. they can manipulate various elements of a page according to the requirements of the client. Likewise, they can also apply the CSS-based transition effects included in the framework to customize form submission and page links through AJAX.

Users can import a current theme, make changes, and export the theme back to the app for integration. I think it was a great solution at its time.

Many businesses find it challenging to get their apps included in Apple App Store. But jQuery includes the virtues of individual environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about jQuery Mobile?

It was a good solution at its time, nowadays there are other needs and approaches. The project is practically abandoned, it checked out its GitHub repo, their last commit was in 2019 (today's 01-2021). It doesn't support MVC framework. There are new and innovative alternatives rather than jQuery nowadays.

The performance of mobile web applications developed using jQuery differs across web browsers and devices. Programmers have highlighted the apps perform slower on Android. But the same apps run faster on iOS devices. Also, the jQuery applications cannot outperform native mobile applications in the category of speed. This is something you should care about when user experience is graded in you application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Early JQuery maintenance, replatforming"
What do you like best about jQuery Mobile?

Simple, clean, comprehensive. Very easy to use for quick PoC's. Was always reliably stable and performant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about jQuery Mobile?

Dated now, sometimes complex with packages and updates, third-party integration. While simple, JQuery is now a somewhat dated platform requiring extensive third-party add-ins to bring it to contemporary usage, look and feel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Jquery Mobile adapts your website for mobile phones"
What do you like best about jQuery Mobile?

When you use jquery mobile, you have the freedom to built specifically for mobile devices and not have to hack your code to cater for smaller screens. Jquery Mobile has support to touch guesture used on touch screen phones. Just like Jquery, jquery Mobile is also easier to use than native javascript Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about jQuery Mobile?

Jquery Mobile is difficult to integrate into Angular applications. It involves a series of hacks that are often erroneous. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent in times of decreasing trials, no longer so important"
What do you like best about jQuery Mobile?

Com for assistance, and now it is not feasible to find the solution in time. Com for assistance, and it is no longer possible to locate the answer in time. Quite useful in the user interface design segment during mobile application development. I can exchange small codes to create a prototype for my company. The learning curve is almost nonexistent if you have an average inheritance of JavaScript. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about jQuery Mobile?

Nothing extreme. Mobile devices have a truly limited computer and memory, and jQuery Mobile uses resources quietly, especially during page transitions and push calls. It is much more difficult to develop a robust mobile application in jQuery Mobile than the alternative. Now it is no longer up-to-date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Jquery Mobile reviews "
What do you like best about jQuery Mobile?

Easier to host the CDN and it has all the new features for the mobile development. the Media queries are been taken care nicely and has the best plugins available for development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about jQuery Mobile?

Size of the jquery mobile plugins is the one of the major issues, because of unwanted javascript needed to be loaded to use minimum features if used this will be a huge impact on performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I have worked on Family App in Jquery Mobile"

I like the most - look and feel, rapid development and transactions effects.. even user can create a shortcut on desktop to just feel like native apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about jQuery Mobile?

There is a scroll issue in long listing.. When we scroll the page it got stuck and then not loading the further content. Just due to this bug we are planning to move to native app :( Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
